5.0 out of 5 stars a masterpiece, February 22, 2005

First and foremost, I'm familiar with a lot of the Bunnymen's music; however, this is the only CD of theirs I will own. The rest of their music is bland, for my tastes. With that said, this is a great CD.

There is a mood that is haunting; it's engaging. The songs have energy in a subdued way, and the lyrics are powerful. I dare say that this is a "must have" CD for any collector of rock/punk music.

Even though there is not one mediocre song on this CD, I absolutely recommend "Over the Wall" and "The Disease."

These musicians have created a virtually unrivaled collection of songs in "Heaven Up Here."

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Introduction To The Bunnymen!!, April 24, 2002

Personally, I feel that this is the best Bunnymen album. For those of you that are into 'Goth' music and always wanted to check this classic band out, this is the album that would be best for you to start with. "Heaven Up Here" is easily the gloomiest and most angst-ridden Bunnymen release. Highlights include "Show Of Strength" and the moody bitterness of "All My Colours" ("That box you gave me/burned nicely") Similar in spirit to Joy Division and early Cure, this CD will not disappoint the post-punk enthusiast or serious Goth music collector.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just a wonderful listening experience from start to finish.., May 20, 2000

I just find 80's post punk music to be fantastic. I'm happy I have bands such as Echo in my cd collection and feel a bit sorry for those who feel that kid rock and limp bizkit are alternative music. Seems the American public has little taste, see parents that's what you get for letting little Brandon and Buffy watch Jerry Springer after school and not the Discovery channel.....
